ABSTRACT
The SBS studies should not only be limited to monitoring its symptoms among the occupants of specific indoor environments. Generally applicable effective SBS lowering methods should be developed. They may concern a comprehensive removal of all kinds of indoor air pollutants responsible for SBS or only their reduction. Ozone treatment has become a focus of attention because ozone generating devices are still used to improve the IAQ despite the fact that this method can be considered as a controversial one as recent research has shown that in addition to the harmful effects of ozone itself, the products of indoor chemistry initiated by ozone are equally or even more hazardous (Weschler 2000, Boeniger 1995, Hubbard et al. 2005).
